A Study on Cultural Contents in English Textbooks in Junior High Schools from the Perspective of Intercultural Communication: A Case Study of PEP Edition

As the cultural exchanges around the world become more closer, the cultivation of cultural awareness has become a need for social development. The English Curriculum Standard for Compulsory Education (2011 edition) explicitly incorporates cultural awareness into the English curriculum objectives, and good cultural awareness helps language learners to understand correctly and use the target language appropriately for intercultural communication. This paper therefore examines the effectiveness of the PEP English textbook in developing students' intercultural awareness and communicative competence through textbook evaluation, literature analysis and content analysis, in order to find out whether the cultural content in the textbook helps students develop cultural awareness, with a view to further improving the layout and design of the cultural content in the textbook, as well as providing suggestions for teachers to make better use of the cultural content in the textbook. The study also provides suggestions for teachers to make better use of the cultural content in textbooks, so that they can teach culture more effectively, thereby achieving the goal of cultural awareness development and effectively raising students' cultural awareness. The results of this study show that the cultural content set in the HRE textbooks is basically in line with the requirements and objectives of cultural awareness development in the Curriculum, but there are some areas for improvement. This study only focuses specifically on the textbooks at the junior secondary education level, selecting the content of the reading section, and does not cover all parts of the textbooks. In future studies, the research objects in the textbooks can be extended to other areas to make the research results more comprehensive and complete.

O desafio de ensinar Educação Física na perspectiva da educação republicana e democrática

Abstract This essay aims to discuss and conceptually articulate Physical Education (PE) teaching presuppositions developed under the multidimensionality premise, under the republican and democratic education perspective. The text thematizes aspects that are decisive for this, emphasizing the multidimensionality of knowledge considering an educational praxis that comes along with a communicative teaching perspective, still having research as a pedagogical principle and structuring teaching processes in teaching units. Even recognizing that the explained proposal may not solve considerable problems in the area, we understand that taking it seriously can constitute an interesting way to make the debate about teaching PE from a republican and democratic education perspective deeper.

Региональное социально-политическое взаимодействие онлайн и офлайн: возможности сравнения и измерения на примере экологической повестки

Regional socio-political interaction is characterized by a combination of the development agenda and local projects implemented in the “home” space. Currently, formats of socio-political interaction intersect everywhere in real and virtual, online and offline interactions. A methodological turn to the study of simultaneous formats of online and offline interactions, in our opinion, allows us to consider the combination of social and political interaction of regional communities in the totality of network techniques of virtual communications. The aim of the study is to consider online and offline formats of socio-political interaction by collecting current issues on the platform of the regional environmental agenda. There is a synchronization of information layers and communication perspectives of the experience of life “here and now”, network and cloud communication. The environmental agenda is highly attractive in discussing and highlighting the socio-political problems of the region. The article uses data obtained by the authors during the Kuzbass-Politics monitoring study aimed at studying the opinions of residents of the cities of Kemerovo Oblast. The results of the surveys of 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2023 were analyzed. Big data collected using data-mining tools was also used. For digital analysis, we used a collected dataset of current data from regional network communities of Kuzbass on VKontakte. The sources of the data were messages (posts) in selected 56 unique communities of Kuzbass; comments to posts with the indication of community id, community name, post id, community territory label (period 01 January 2022 – 18 November 2022). The data obtained show the relevance of environmental issues in offline sociopolitical interaction, and a tendency towards an increase in positive assessments of the environmental situation by citizens over the past four years. Based on the results of the analysis of network data, we can observe the absence of the direct mention of ecology and related issues on the agenda of regional network communities and top socio-political issues. Internet technologies in the context of the study of regional socio-political interaction are understood in three ways: a source of information, a communication medium, and a conductor into virtual public arenas. The results of the study showed the intersection of environmental topics in regional field studies and descriptions of network agendas analyzed using data-mining tools. Consequently, the environmental agenda can serve as a point of assembly of latent regional issues with the subsequent transfer of relevance and mobilization activities to related and sometimes unobvious topics. The regional agenda indicates the main directions for the development of further research: the ability to focus on the use of digital technologies and networking tools and an emphasis on the content of communication and the activities of actors.

Etiquette Social Communication Strategies in the World of Work for Women to Combat Sexual Crime and Violence in the Era of Modernization

The Industrial Revolution in the 18th century brought about significant social dynamics, especially women being able to adapt from home industry to modern manufacturing and mobilization in the field of education.

Contextually, from a social communication perspective, implementing ethics in the digital era is starting to experience a process of hegemony with foreign cultures which are still in contact, because women in Indonesia have a high cultural context (High Contact). The data collection method uses a descriptive qualitative approach, data acquisition uses library research (content analysis) and deep interviews with purposive sampling techniques.

Approaching Kautaliya Arthashastra from the Communication Perspective

Political thoughts on good governance from the Hindu perspective are set by Dandaniti, which is guided by Dharma and Artha in a continuum. Kautilya’s Arthashastra has been one of the most influential sources of political thoughts in Hinduism since over two millennia. The treatise deals with wide-ranging subject matters including politics, economics, governance, administration, philosophy, and so on. Though the emphasis on Artha is self-evident in Arthashastra, the common guiding principle for all affairs of statecraft as envisioned by Kautilya is the concept of Dharma. For instance, raja-dharma, the duty of the King or the ruler, is discussed at length in the classic text. As evident in Arthashastra, Hinduism envisions close interconnection between peace, politics and religion, in which politics guided by Dharma is instrumental for ensuring peace in society. This classical treatise can be approached from the communication perspective, employing certain indicators.

International Perspectives in Education and Communication

Rapid technological development, the increasing need for sustainability standards and actions, combined with the constant rise of artificial intelligence (AI), impact all industries and workplaces, including the education sector (Tettamanzi et al., 2023). Our ‘new normal’, after the COVID-19 pandemic, precipitated educators to implement changes to their teaching in order to help them provide an effective educational learning experience (Tettamanzi et al., 2023), hence making it crucial to redefine our approaches, plan, innovate and readjust to all the novel needs. The four research papers of this issue discuss ways in which education professionals and beyond innovate and adapt to a ‘new normal’.

A Systematic Review On Green Banking Disclosure

This paper presents a systematic review of the topic of Green Banking Disclosure (GBD). GBD has been a growing concept since 2008, with its development bringing about changes, both in terms of the natural and social environments. As such, it is crucial to give it due attention. The study reviewed 50 papers, including 65 empirical ones, and yielded four main findings. Firstly, in terms of theory, legitimacy theory, stakeholder theory, and the concept of Spider profit growth, which serves as an indicator of a company's fund utilization efficiency, were prevalent in the literature. These theories provide a basis for evaluating company management performance, motivating management, and controlling economic resource allocation, ultimately aiding in forecasting future profits and economic events. Secondly, the Green Coin Rating (GCR) concept, comprising six points, played a significant role in the discourse on green banking. Thirdly, the majority of GBD studies were conducted in Muslim-majority countries. The research population included all financial reports of Islamic Commercial Banks during the period 2016-2019. The sample consisted of nine Islamic Commercial Banks that published annual reports up to 2019 and met the criteria for implementing the Green Banking concept. The study suggests that future research endeavors should consider integrating both primary and secondary data to assess the implementation of Green Banking and green financing in banking institutions. This approach would lead to a more comprehensive understanding of the subject and provide a more communicative perspective for customers.

Analysing Child Bullying Case from the Perspective of Media Political Economy and Islamic Communication in Ihya Ulum Al Din by Al Ghazali

The rise of child bullying cases has not escaped the media spotlight. News about cases found and their developments grab the attention of the public, especially bullying cases involving minors as perpetrators and victims. Children associated with cases that should have privacy and protection, in reality, become media and public consumption. Bullying cases no longer only focus on the case, but also the privacy of the perpetrators and victims. Responses from various communities have also been in the spotlight. Condemnation and blasphemy against the perpetrators then become their own form of bullying outside the case. One of the cases that caught the public's attention was the bullying case of Audrey, a junior high school student in Pontianak in 2019. The case even went viral and received public support through an online petition with the hashtag #justiceforaudrey. However, it was later discovered that the case was a fabrication made by Audrey after several years of the case going viral. The audience was then made guilty of blaming the alleged perpetrator without seeing the real truth first. Content about bullying cases is then no longer a bridge of information for the public, but also a business field and a place to get public attention. This research aims to dissect how cases of child bullying in the media from the perspective of media political economy and Islamic perspective communication.

Pa'belle Fishermen Empowerment: A Communicative Action Perspective in An Industrialized Society

This research examines the empowerment process of Pa'belle fishermen from a communicative action perspective, recognizing that all their activities serve as communication tools with meaning and messages for others. The study aims to analyze the problems faced by the fishermen during the empowerment process, as well as the communicative actions they undertake and the direction of their empowerment. The research utilizes a qualitative Single Case Study approach, with 15 purposively selected fishermen as informants who have at least two years of experience working as fishermen and understand the challenges experienced by fishermen and fishermen groups. Data collection involved in-depth interviews, participant observation, and literature study, while data analysis employed a three-step technique of data categorization, data reduction, and conclusion drawing. The study findings revealed various problems faced by Pa'belle fishermen in the empowerment process, including challenges with government support such as DAU 2021 assistance, the need for "Balean" wooden stakes, nets, extension workers' limited understanding of fishermen's socio-cultural realities, and exclusive participation in meetings with village heads. Internal problems within fishermen groups were also identified, such as the lottery-based determination of Sero numbers, inadequate information dissemination from extension workers to group members, lack of coordination among members, and a group leader who is not open or independent. The study also identified the communicative actions of Pabelle' fishermen during the empowerment process. These actions included intense communication, providing self-managed assistance tailored to the fishermen's needs, active participation in every activity, conveying ideas intensively, daring to express criticism and input on occurring problems, displaying a critical perspective on illegal logging issues, as well as exhibiting power, access, and control over their resources. In terms of the direction of Pabelle' fishermen empowerment, the study suggests the need to strengthen the role of fishermen groups, the digitalization of fishermen's activities, increased environmental awareness, and the involvement of external parties outside the government. This research demonstrates that empowerment processes among the Pa'belle fishermen involve various communicative actions that convey their social situations to others. The findings highlight the key problems encountered by the fishermen, the communicative actions they undertake during the empowerment process, and the directions for further empowerment initiatives. These insights contribute to a better understanding of the empowerment process and offer guidance for policymakers and practitioners seeking to empower marginalized fishing communities.

Les relations transphrastiques à la frontière entre la phrase et le texte

Interclausal relations are traditionally studied within the framework of the complex sentence of endocentric subordinative form. However, there is no essential correlation between interclausal linkage and complex sentence. Interclausal relations are not meanings of subordinate clauses but conceptual relations that bridge saturated processes of equal rank. According to this premise, complex sentence is only one option for the expression of interclausal relations, along with text. Moreover, if we compare the competing structures, it turns out that the unmarked form of expression is not complex sentence but text. While a complex sentence imposes a hierarchic syntactic structure on a symmetric conceptual structure, the structure of the text and the conceptual structure of interclausal relations are isomorphic. As a marked option, the choice of complex sentence requires a specific functional motivation, which does not involve the ideation of the link itself but the communicative perspective: its function is to impose a layered communicative perspective on the connexion, which is distributed between foreground and background information.

Remappings of a Region: Popular Map Images Around and Beyond ‘Southeast Asia’

Our spatial understandings and perceptions are augmented by media representations of spaces. Whilst maps are often studied within the academic fields of geography and art history, their discussion within the context of design and design history remains insufficient. This paper delves into the study of popular maps as cross-cultural design artefacts. This is done through case studies from the perspective of graphic communication, analyzing maps along their symbolic, narrative, and discursive interpretations as well as how they interplay with lived experiences. The period from 1930s to the 1960s saw several events that led to frequent remappings of geo-entities around the loose assemblage of nations that we now know as Southeast Asia, which included the birth of new nations and the forging of alliances. This process of repeated remappings enables an interesting study on the nature of maps, their instrumentalization, and their consumption.
